That makes a lot of sense. My costs are essentially $0. My time is the largest factor. Agreed the user's are most likely "shortlived", but I collect emails which could be nice for something like a newsletter.

Yeah, newsletters seem big these days so that could work.

Alternatively you could let users make profiles with their preferences for their ideal job (remote only, MEAN stack, >£80k, etc) and notify them when a matching ad appears, you could even charge for this. This strategy allows you to also charge employers to contact/see your users, I think Dribbble does this, so it might be worth taking a look there.

Good luck and let us know how it works out, I love hearing about stuff like that.

Thank you!
